Four Minute Warning, Minute Two

Numbers keep ticking down. 179, 178, 177… and yet every second stretches into a lifetime. In this second instalment of Four Minute Warning, the countdown continues through his eyes: a man trapped between technology’s silence and the memories of how it all began.

As a nuclear strike looms over London, his radio hisses with an AI voice telling him what he already knows — this isn’t a drill. His phone stays dead, refusing him the one connection he craves. And with each falling number he is hurled back to the night he first saw her across a crowded bar, the moment that changed everything.

Minute Two deepens the tension of Roq’s haunting, minute-by-minute narrative. Love, fear and memory collide as time slips away. For listeners of On the Beach, Station Eleven and The Road, this is not just an apocalyptic countdown but an intimate portrait of longing at the edge of the end.

Written and narrated by Roq, Four Minute Warning unfolds one minute at a time — and every minute counts.
